Nancy Harris’ award-winning comedy-drama The Dry is halfway through its third and final season. Here’s what some of the critics have been saying:
The Irish Times
“Harris’s script is agreeably wry and impressively relentless”
“each 30-minute episode clips by – helped along by some genuinely compelling twists”
“it’s great fun to sit down and watch it pour another (non-alcoholic) glass of acutely observed social comedy”
The Journal
“The Dry avoids wrapping things up in a way that feels forced or unearned.”
“that’s what makes The Dry such a touching watch: the sense that while the family’s dramas can be at times ludicrous, they are nonetheless very real.”
“replete with great jokes, but it’s the serious moments that linger after the final episode”
Irish Independent
“The plot is really terrific. The action rolls on at a very sharp pace, throwing out surprises and twists as it goes.”
Episodes air every Thursday on RTÉ One and all eight episodes available now on RTÉ Player.
